do you see the virgin mary in tortillas? and make a pilgrimage to that area of the globe to see it first hand?
Some religious people would say those people are crazy... some would say their faith brought them there.
It is all subjective, just how much irrationality you are willing to accept being religious.

What these threads get is a lot of emotion and very little discussion of the evidence and it's merits.
Telling.

FUCK OFF.
I am emotional about you fucking crackpots spreading your pernicious brand of world view in which we are all 'sinners' (you judgmental fucks), and that we can only be 'saved from eternity in a firey pit' (you twisted fucks), by forcing ourselves to 'believe' (I couldnt if I tried for a million years), that some large powerful ghost had a son (what ?), who people killed (but not really), and so then we WON'T be sent to this firey pit forever - UH, OK then 'Thanks' for that, I think, oh mystical jester.
Its just weue

I wouldn't say it's blasphemous. Poor taste maybe, but not blasphemous. Blasphemy by definition would be saying something like "Jesus is the son of the devil."
I was once asked to design an ad with the headline "Blessed are the cheap, for they will inherit the earth."
I respectfully declined.

mitokondria2..
... which one of FUCKS in this thread has callled you OR ANYONE for that matter... a 'sinner'?
Pay attention... and wipe that anger off your face.

gramme and flag have said we are all sinners a million times, ponyboy.

mikotondria, I'm not sure what misguided "Christian" has fed you these ideas or whether you simply concocted these prejudices in the basement of your brain.
Thing is, I'm a sinner too. We're all in the same boat. Sorry you don't see it the same way.
Out of curiosity, have I ever offended you personally?
Thanks for being honest, at any rate. Some people tell me in simpering tones and half-meanings that they sorta believe some of the Bible but not all of it. I'd rather be told to F/O as it's more logically and morally consistent than making an attempt to have ones cake and eat it too.
BTW Jesus never killed anyone. And if you think God is to blame for all the senseless violence committed by humans through the ages, then I suggest perhaps you are the one who has been living in a cave.

mikotondria:
strawman, mostly.
You say we believe things we do not and then attack them.
Do you know what the biblical term "sin" means? It means missing the mark, literally. Do you believe people are without evil tendencies? Do you believe people should not be held accountable for their evil? Do you believe Hitler rests comfortably in the grave after dying in the comforting arms of his mistress? Oh, let me guess: it is pernicious and sick to believe that we are all equally born into this world as sinners, as the Bible teaches? Maybe you just don't have a high enough view of the creator of the universe and his inability to tolerate sin because of his perfect holiness. Or maybe you don't understand that humans ultimately chose to rebel against their creator, choosing sin over his obedience to his loving commands.
Methinks it is your view which is twisted.

you guys get really worked up discussing your different "beliefs" with one another.
As in, "I choose to believe in this or that"
Hell, agree to disagree, if nothing else

gramme: mikotondria has a cute little caricature of Christians in his brain. Placed there by his political ideologues, no doubt. Regardless, what he believes has little bearing in reality.
- mrdobolina0
so mikotondria doesn't believe in your god, so you refute his disbelief with facts from your bible.
do you see any problem with this?

flagellumoh the irony...
- flagellum0
yes, mrdobolina, that it's not true and not what I did.
Can you not read, or do you purposely misrepresent what you read?
- flagellum0
about Christians, mrdobolina. You should be a politican, you are frightfully dishonest.
- mrdobolina0
jesus teaches you to be a smug fucking prick I see.
- mrdobolina0
I was being completely hoinest when I called you a smug fucking prick.
you live your life based on fables and toehr people are not living in reality, that is ironic, isn't it?

I wonder if mikotondria reduces human evil to genes and the desire to survive. I suppose that's the only option if you deny that we have a sin nature.
And if that's the case, then of course "evil" doesn't really exist. It's just a human construct and a relic. So, do as you please.

lolz... this is going nowhere really fast... as usual...
... again... I haven't seen where gramme and flag have called any of you guys 'sinners' in a reprimanding 'I'm better than you' way.
Gramme did just mention one thing - we're all sinners...
... but I've never read these guys as being 'judgmental' of any of you who are rudely arguing faith to be silly.
Mitokondria... you really need to check that hate too... also examine the World as a hole - both now and historically...
... religion has been around a lot longer than you... to discount it all as superstitiousness is just as silly as me saying there has been no benefit to our lives from scientific study.

mrdobolina: if you would just take a minute or two the try and understand the data and the premise of the arguments in these issues, you wouldn't lose your temper. :)
